MORE WAYS TO GET CONNECTED
The AUGUST RE-CONNECT PRAYER FOCUS CONTINUES! We meet daily, Monday-Saturday, each week from 6:30-7:15am for a time of praise and prayer in the Worship Center. “Prayer Walking” in the community begins each Wednesday at 7am. We meet in the Gathering Area for a brief time of instruction, then go out into our community by twos and threes for an hour of prayer walking. REMEMBER: Prayer isn’t a substitute for action. It’s an action for which there is no substitute. Re-Connect Prayer Guides are available at the Welcome Center.
